Security Scenario

Koderma is one of the districts where the district police has managed to not only withstands the onslaught of extremism but has actually pushed it back. The success story is centred around constitution of Village Defense Parties in the police station areas of Markacho P.S. and Domchanch O.P. These Village Defense Parties comprise of one to four villages grouped together and have been given the name of Eklabya Task Force (ETF). They have achieved remarkable success in eliminating and sanitizing the area from extremist presence and influence. They have been given all moral and possible logistic support by the police which also includes setting up strategic pickets in village Dagarnawan of Markacho P.S. and village Sapahi of Domchanch O.P. of Koderma P.S. There are at present 23 Eklavya Task Force units working in these areas. In the year 2007, not a single case of naxal violence has been reported from Koderma district.

Police developed friendly relations with the people and particularly the youth of the interior areas and educated them against the naxals. To encourage the youth we organized foot ball tournaments and cricket tournaments at all block levels and at district level. We have distributed sport kits and carom boards and other games kits in interior schools to encourage school children to get away the fear of police in the in the minds of children. We distributed solar lamps in the remote areas where there is no electricity.
